Write an equation that represents a discount of 18% on a retail price of $55. let p represent the new price.

55-(55×0.18)=p

A discount is the percentage of the item minus the original price. Because you need to take 18% off of 55, you need to first convert 18% to a decimal. Do this by moving the decimal point two spots to the left:

18=0.18

Then, you must find out what 18% of 55 is. Do this by multiplying 0.18 by 55:

0.18×55=9.9

Then you must subtract 9.9 from the original 55:

55-9.9=45.1

To find the equation, you combine all of these steps into one equation:

55-(55×0.18)=p

You would then follow GEMDAS to solve the equation, if needed.

answer:   x = 3 + √11     and     x = 3 - √11

step-by-step explanation:

x² - 6x + 9 = 11

(x - 3)² = 11

x - 3 = ±√11

    x = 3 ± √11

x = 3 + √11     and     x = 3 - √11
